My girls had pink eye three times last summer. I got it five or so times. Hubby didn't get it at all.

Warm washcloths on the eye. Wipe from the inside out to remove anything crusted on. It sucks! They gave us an eye cream (way easier than eye drops in little ones) and it started clearing up within a day of using it.

I have also read that I should massage the inside of her eye to get the crap out. It took everything I had to get her to let me to clean it up with a washcloth though. I highly doubt she would allow a massage.
